This is a really fun, sweet movie. I don't usually like road trip movies much, but this one really appealed to me. I guess I have respect for Star Wars nerds (especially when they're up against Trekkies. *shudders* I have a phobia) and I myself speak in dorky film references, whi...( read more)
Good comedy about Star Wars fans taking a road trip. Highlight - fight between them and the trekkies
This comedy about a couple of geeks who plan to break into George Lucas' Skywalker ranch to see Star Wars Episode 1 months before the start for their dying friend is a riot - although mostly for Star Wars fans. They will be the ones who get the tons of quotes, references, cameos ...( read more)
Really funny and anyone who is into any fandom will be able to relate. Loved all the Star Wars references and cameos. Fun movie!
If you are living in the 90s and you find out your friend is going to die ( I know kind of bummer in a comedy...but no one is perfect... ) what better way to have him spend his last days, then to break into Skywalker ranch and watch an illegal copy of Episode One?

Genial and potty-mouthed and dumb and sweet -- a rudely engaging road comedy with more inside Star Wars baseball than a convention hall full of Imperial Grand Moffs. full review
Though it does feature a few inspired comic moments, there is a surplus of tired, overused gags. full review
The comic Force is with Fanboys, a hilarious and heartwarming film about the wondrous powers of movies that last a lifetime. full review
Probably the closest thing my generation will get to having its own "Diner" full review
For its amusing premise, Fanboys is scarily flat. full review
Fanboys is an amiable but disjointed movie that identifies too closely with its heroes. Poking a little more fun at them would have been a great idea. full review
It's a ticklish footnote to the Star Wars phenomenon. full review
Will this ever come out? It seems forever since I saw the trailer with Clerks 2.
This movie is going to be amazing it has a hillarious trailor it is a must see.
this a story of star wars geeks like me
BOBA FETT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
